Changes Attributable to On-board Training in the Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy and the Occupational Consciousness of Undergraduate Fisheries Students

乗船実習経験による水産系大学生の進路選択に対する自己効力と職業意識の変化

It is suggested that education providing the opportunity of accessing a ship may contribute to enhancing the career decision-making self-efficacy. Therefore, the authors surveyed the changes attributable to on-board training in the career decision-making self-efficacy and the occupational consciousness of undergraduate fisheries students. The survey was conducted for the on-board training of the Faculty of Fisheries, Nagasaki University in August and September 2013. The survey questionnaire consists of questions (30 items) on the career decision-making self-efficacy scale, questions on the occupational consciousness such as desirable job, and so on. As a result, there was a tendency that the marks of the career decision-making self-efficacy scale increased after the on-board training. Consequently it was suggested that the career decision-making self-efficacy was affected by the on-board training. As for the occupational consciousness, there was no difference between before and after the training about whether the students have a desirable job or not. However, the 33 percent of students, who replied after the training that they firmly or faintly had a desirable job, responded their occupational consciousness varied after the training. Particularly focusing on the navigation related jobs including maritime officers, the number of students wanted to have such job increased by 3 after the training. Accordingly, it has suggested that on-board training would have an impact on the occupational consciousness.
